A 6 x 4 white card boldly signed in person by Ursula Andress, the Swiss actress and former model who has appeared in American, British and Italian films. Her breakthrough role was as Bond girl Honey Ryder in the first James Bond film, Dr. No (1962). In what became an iconic moment in cinematic and fashion history, she rose out of the Caribbean Sea in a white bikini sporting a large diving knife on her hip. The scene made Andress a "quintessential" Bond girl, and she later said that she owed her career to that white bikini. She also starred as Vesper Lynd in the 1967 Bond parody Casino Royale. Other credits include Fun in Acapulco (1963) with Elvis Presley, 4 for Texas (1963) with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, She (1965), The 10th Victim (1965), The Blue Max (1966), The Southern Star (1969), Perfect Friday (1970), Red Sun (1971), The Sensuous Nurse (1975), Slave of the Cannibal God (1978), The Fifth Musketeer (1979), Clash of the Titans (1981) and Peter the Great (1986). In 1965, nude photographs of her from Nightmare in the Sun were published in Playboy, the first of seven times she was pictured in the magazine over the next fifteen years. When asked why she had agreed to do a Playboy shoot, Andress replied coolly, "Because I'm beautiful".
